Squid's Inventory Hud
Squid's Inventory Hud draws a display of the inventory above the hotbar, and players can switch it on or off with a hotkey.
What it does
The overlay shows the inventory contents just above the hotbar during play, so items stay visible without opening a screen. Players toggle it with a standard hotkey that is bound by default. When another screen such as a crafting table opens, the overlay hides itself and returns after that screen closes. The mod runs on Fabric and is client-side only, so servers do not need it. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
